Job Description:

Manager of Partner Sellers

HYBRID - Chicago, IL

Pay: $28.00 Hourly

Summary:

Manager of Partner Sellers - Summary

The Job in One Line: Lead the team, covering a portfolio of partners, own the aggregate revenue number, and grow both the business and the people.

Seller vs. Manager: The seller owns one partners selling capacity and works individual deals. The manager owns the portfolio of partners, the team covering them, the coverage model, the goal and investment allocation, the inspection rhythm, and the development of the people.

Core Construct

• Revenue is earned through the partners own sales engine - the managers job is making the team consistently effective at arming partner champ teams, inside reps, and AEs with accounts, insights, offers, and deal support.
• Equal parts people leadership (onboarding, coaching, inspection, weekly/monthly rhythm) and business leadership (portfolio strategy, coverage model, goal allocation).
• Escalations beyond the individual seller and executive relationships with partner sales leadership land here.
• Boundaries
• No end customers, no displacing a seller on their partner - engages behind them for executive depth, escalation, or investment approval.
• Owns the aggregate portfolio number and coverage model, not an individual account set.

Four Responsibility Pillars

• Lead and develop the team - onboard and ramp sellers, documented development plans, consistent 1:1 cadence, clear expectations with early gap correction, culture of recognition and shared learning.
• Own portfolio revenue and coverage - carry aggregate revenue plus YoY growth commitment, allocate goals/quotas, forecast pipeline, run corrective plays on coverage, aging, or conversion gaps.
• Run the business rhythm - weekly pipeline and lead follow-up inspection, monthly business reviews, accountability for account lists landed, routed lead response times, SMEC coverage, and standardized plays/assets/reporting.
• Own executive relationships - sponsor-level ties with partner sales leadership and the joint growth agenda; represent performance, risks, and asks to Microsoft leadership with a point of view and a plan.

Plus strategy and operational design: shaping Agentic AI sales programs and AI device positioning, directing BI/analytics investment toward short, ranked, assignable target account lists, and owning lead management rules and closed-loop reporting.

Education/Experience:

• Bachelors degree in business/marketing or equivalent training required.
• 10+ years experience required managing people
